Guests - lots of them! =))

We’re hosting my aunt and her family for a few weeks. My aunt, my uncle and three of my cousins (6, 8 and 11) and it’s been a lot of work but I’m amazed at how everyone got settled and comfortable in no time. So here are the updates: (The little I can think about with all the noise here!)


Benjamin: his vocabulary is awesome!! Doubling every day and getting more and more clear… I think life is a whole lot easier now that he can communicate better. Not really doing the sign language anymore but I still want to see if he’ll help me teach it to

Noah. He is having a blast with Jessica and, also, my cousins. I think he’s going to miss them really bad when they leave.

I got him this huge pack of Backyardigans foam stickers at Linens’N’Things for a couple of bucks and he is so into it that I have to hide it! And talking about hiding…

I’ve been doing that with the pacifier. As long as he doesn’t see it, he’ll only ask for it if he’s got a booboo.

I’m not sure I’ve mentioned this before, but he’s actually calling Noah: “Noah”! Hahah He’s pronouncing the “Ah” too!!! It is so great to see how he recognizes people, and say their names; he’s a lot more social and easy going with people.

Noah: basically seating down by himself, very talkative, reaching for things and bringing everything to his mouth. Loving to play with his feet, he’s tried papayas, bananas, apples and organic teething cookies. Also loving bath time and interacting with Ben and other kids. Now he enjoys sling-riding again!!!

Dan: when we got back from Brasil his bald spots were pretty bad so he shaved and it looks really good. He also feels colder, like me! He really likes the new season of 24 but I can’t watch it… we do watch Grey’s Anatomy, Desperate Housewives and The Office together. We try not to get hooked on any other TV show so we can get some more quality time with the boys.

Lilian:
Fatter then ever… but happy! (Besides the time I worry about my daddy)
Also: Happy Birthday to me!! =)

Tim and Shannon got me the cutest cookie cake, they came over for dinner and (as usual, whenever we spend time with them) we had a very good time!

She e-mailed me pretty pictures – I need to download them and post here soon!
